TFW2005- Members GenZhao and TM2 D-bot have posted comparison galleries of the soon-to-be released (or already released, it depends who you talk to) Henkei Minibot Attack and Spy Teams.

The Spy Team consists of Cosmos, Warpath, and Wheelie.

The Attack Team is made up of Cliffjumper (Legends Bumblebee repaint), Beachcomber, and Brawn.

While we know Seibertron will post an excellent, comprehensive gallery when he gets his sets, but the images presented here should help others decide if the price of importing these toys is worth it when you compare them to the original HASBRO releases.

You can check out the full set of images here, with a sample below, and be sure to discuss the differences (Brown Brawn? Light Orange Wheelie) with our community members here on http://www.Seibertron.com.

Hmm? Who's saying they've been released?

WOW, this clearly shows that Hasbro Wheelie is the better paint scheme.

I have to see if I can cancel my preorder.

Hmmm...I am partial to the Hasbro releases of the mini-bots. I LOVE the hasbro versions of Warpath, Wheelie and Cosmos. They rock.

*EDIT* Not seeing much difference between Universe and Henkei Cosmos except for the blue highlight. Hasbro looks better IMO, as does Wheelie. I like Henkei Brawn's green a little better than the Hasbro one.

I was tempted for a while, but I can't really justify getting them. Never liked the legends-sized figs. Maybe there'll be scout-sized versions sometime down the road.

I want Cliffjumper and khaki Brawn so the Henkei Attack team is a done deal for me.

I'll pick up Hasbro Bumblebee, Wheelie, Warpath and Cosmos as well, as although Henkei Warpath is better, I don't think he's so much better as to warrant the cash (also Hasbro Wheelie is better).

I pretty much agree with this, I like Henkei Warpath's colors more but since they're only available in the set I'll go with Hasbro versions of these.
